MUNICH (Reuters) - David Moyes said his focus was on building a team to get Manchester United back in the Champions League after they lost to Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals on Wednesday, all but ending their hopes of playing in next season's competition.

After a dismal domestic campaign by their lofty standards - United sit seventh in the Premier League, seven points behind fourth-placed Arsenal - their last realistic chance of qualifying for next season's Champions League rested on winning the competition.
